Finally got a J O B

  Whoot,start tomorrow in the quad cities painting something which is super.Just in time too,money is getting harder to come by and I still have lots I need to do that require it.I bought a few gifts for some friends that help me out a lot and gave some to my stepson but I need some to grow BHCO. I try to spread it around when I have it,but my family needs some from time to time,tis my lady paying all the bills so that BHCO can continue.

   lets see,we got some recognition in the Galva paper which I put a pic up,and star courier has put our names on the front page,I guess my one friend opted out of the race.He  filled out the paperwork but he is very disappointed in the city and sees no hope for a future here so he never filed it.He says he will help if he sees some progress and has some great ideas.I will try to follow up on some of them in order to push the projects,I too however do not see why the current council isnt using their resources to do some obvious projects.I will hope Chad gets elected and we can back him up, this would give us more time to work directly on ideas and have Chad be the voice of reason to get them heard.We have been talking about forming into a more stable unit to openly discuss ideas with the public through direct interaction and then coming before the council as a large group to implement change.We hope to do this by starting to hold meetings open to the public and to public opinion, then by getting petitions signed and committees formed to counteract the cities positions as they may arise.In other words we hope to no longer take no for an answer or "just because we said no for an answer" we will be fighting for issue after issue,sometimes we may fight for two or three at a time in order to get some projects shovel ready.I guess it will depend on the amount of man power we can muster up,as well as the pushing of grant writing (which I thought was russ meadleys job? maybe I am wrong but I think we should find out whos job it is)..
